Another Gold, 18k or .750

[msareborn]

I can't believe the finds lately, first my first standing liberty quarter. Then my first silver dollar, and now my first .750 or 18K gold find. Hope it doesn't stop! I was just about to call it quits, when I stumbled across this little beauty. I could tell right away it was gold but when I saw the .750 mint mark I thought maybe it was 18K. But I had to check when I got home. Here's a chart I copied off the internet. Weighs 2.30 grams. Sorry, no GoPro video today. Go get you some!
Here are the common decimal to karat equivalents:
24k = 1.00 (100% gold) Rarely used to make jewellery: too soft and too expensive!
22k = .916 (91.6% gold) Frequently seen from the Middle East, North Africa, Asia
21k = .875 (87.5% gold) Frequently seen from the Middle East, North Africa, Asia
18k = .750 (75% gold) Common throughout Europe, especially Italy
14k = .585 (58.5% gold) Common North American standard. Technically .583 but .585 is the conventional mark
10k = .416 (41.6% gold) Common North American standard
12k = .500 (50% gold) An old gold standard rarely seen in newer jewellery
9K = .375 (37.5% gold) Commonly used in the UK

Also, here's the gold scrap value. I'm always amazed at how heavy the higher karat gold is.
Gold Weight: 35.5 grains (equals 2.30 grams)
Purity: 18k
Gold Price: $1077.20 / troy ounce
Total gold value is $59.75.
